INTRODUCTI
ONblock is also
Plummer

known as Pedestal
bearing. For long shafts
requiring intermediate
supports, plummer block
are preferred in place of
ordinary bush bearings.
This bearing was named
after its inventor PLUMMER.

PLUMMER BLOCK
A Plummer block is used for running shafts at high
speed and carrying heavy load. A Plummer block
consist of cast- iron base, gun metal or phosphor
bronze brasses, bushes or steps made in two halves
and a cast iron cap. The two halves of the brasses
are held together by a cap or cover by means of
mild steel bolts and nuts. Sometimes thin shims are
also introduced between the cap and the base to
provide adjustments for wear. When the bottom
wears out one of the two shims are removed and
the cap is tightened by bolts. The Plummer block
must be lubricated properly.

Methods of preventing rotation of brasses in a

bearing
The brasses are provided with collars or flanges on either
side in order to prevent its axial movements. To prevent
its rotation along with the shafts the following four
methods are used:The snugs are provided at the sides.
A snug is provided at the top, which fits inside the cap.
The oil hole is drilled through the snug.
The steps are made rectangular on the outside and they
are made to fit inside a corresponding hole.
The steps are made octagonal and they are made to fit
inside a corresponding hole.

SELF ALIGNING PLUMMER BLOCK

Plummer Block Bearing

Housings

A range of split bearing housing available

with a variety of sealing arrangements
made to accept double row self aligning ball
bearings and spherical roller bearings.
The housing are generally cast iron with two
bolt holes although some sizes are available
in steel.
The main benefit of split plummer block
housings is their easy installation; preassembled shafts can be mounted in them.
When the housing bases are attached to the
base plate it is then only necessary to place
the housing caps in position and to tighten

Split plummer block housings available

on the
market are mainly intended for selfaligning ball
bearings, spherical roller bearings of
ISO Dimension Series 02, 03, 22, 23
and 32. They can often be fitted with
various different seals. Many designs
and variants of split plummer block
housings are available making the use
of tailored housings unnecessary and
thus enabling cost effective bearing

The basis of the plummer block housing

system consists of a number of housings
of the same design but in different sizes.
By combining these housings with the
different standard seals a wide variety of
housing variants, all belonging to the
standard range, can be supplied to cover
the majority of demands for plummer
blocks for shafts having diameters of 20 to
160 mm, inclusive. The standard range
also covers other variants, for example,
housings with drilled and tapped holes for
lubrication nipples or condition monitoring

valves

Non-return

Introduction :

A nonreturn valve is one which

will automatically close and prevent
steam from the main line from
flowing back into the boiler if the
pressure in the latter should fall
below that in the steam line. Where
two or more boilers are connected
to one steam line, a nonreturn
valve shall be provided in the main
steam connection of each boiler,
either in addition to or combined
with the regular stop

Non-Return Valves allow airflow in

only one direction .
Non-Return Valves are available in tubeto-tube style with fractional inch push-toconnect ends, and threaded end style
with fractional inch push-to-connect ends
and UNF or NPT threads. All feature
glass-reinforced, nylon composite body
with nickel-plated brass base. Working
pressure is 15145 psi and working
temperature is 30160F. Valves are
suitable as safety device in compressed
air circuits.

Application
to Injection

Molding
The screw of the plasticating unit of an
injection molding machine typically consists
of a single stage, single flighted conveying
screw with a non-return valve at the end.
Mixing sections are usually not incorporated
into the screw design. One reason for this is
the fact that most plasticating units a
relatively short; the typical length-to-diameter
ratio is 20:1 in injection molding machines.

 A convenient method to improve the

mixing capability of the plasticating
unit of an IMM is to design the nonreturn valve such that it has mixing
capability. Such a dual-purpose nonreturn valve allows an increase in
mixing capability without affecting the
melting and conveying capability of
the plasticating unit. This paper will
describe a non-return valve mixer
based on the CRD mixing technology
developed for single screw extruders.

Mixing is not only important in extrusion, it is

equally important in injection molding. CRD
mixing elements can be added to an injection
screw. Most injection screws have a non-return
valve at the end of the screw to prevent the
molten plastic flowing back into the screw during
injection. It is possible to incorporate mixing
capability into the non-return valve to combine
two functions within one device. Since the nonreturn valve is short, there is little room available
to incorporate mixing capability into the nonreturn valve . The slide ring non-return valve is
the most suitable with respect to adding mixing
capability.


When the screw moves forward,
the check ring is dragged to the
most rearward position against the
check ring seat forming a seal.In
this position the valve is closed and
the plastic melt is thus prevented
from leaking back into the screw
channel during injection. Because
of the relative movement between
the check ring and the stop, stops

Mixing capability can be designed into the slide ring valve by

locating mixing pins on the inside of the slide ring as shown
in figure . The pins are elongated in the axial direction to
achieve an acceleration of the fluid as it is passing between
two pins. The resulting elongational flow results in effective
dispersive mixing. The same elongated pins are also located
on the outside of the stop, resulting in a second exposure to
elongational flow with further dispersive mixing action. The
large number of pins located on the slide ring and stop
induce a large number of splitting and reorientation events,
resulting in efficient distributive mixing action.

The CRD non-return

valve provides a
convenient and cost
efficient method to
improve the mixing
capability of injection
molding screws.
Good mixing action
can be incorporated
simply by exchanging
the conventional nonreturn valve with a
CRD non-return valve

Fuel Non-Return Valve

How to replace the non-return valve on the

fuel pump. Always take standard safety
precautions when dealing with petrol.
Symptoms
Car may take a few turns of the engine to
start. This is more noticeable when the
engine is warm.
No fuel pressure left in the fuel rail when
the engine is off.
Fix
Jaguar part fits into the fuel pump. The fuel
pump is located on the rear chassis.

 Disconnect battery.
Jack rear left hand side. Put car on axle stands.
Remove left hand wheel.
You should be able to follow fuel line back to the
fuel filter (just forward of the wheel arch) and
then to the fuel pump which is behind wheel
arch.
Get new valve ready with new copper washer on
smaller end. Place container to catch petrol
below pump.
Original valves required 17mm spanner. Fuel
hose requires 19mm spanner. New valve
required 19mm spanner.

There is a hex bolt or similar

fitting off to the
side of the
fuel line where it enters the
pump. You can use this to hold
the pump and stop it turning in
its bracket.
Loosen fuel line. Holding the
non return valve to prevent it
rotating. Undo enough to get it
loose then do it up again finger
tight to stem the fuel flow (if
any). Now hold pump body and
loosen the non return valve.

Don't worry if you see something fall out of the

end. You can place pipe up on spring and it won't
push out too much petrol. However, valve end will by
now be spewing petrol all over the place. Plug end.
Hopefully, because you have already loosened it you
will be able to unscrew the valve by hand (it's a bit
tight to get your hand in so a "dry run" may be in
order)

As soon as it's out, drop it and pick up the new one

to stem the flow of petrol. The new one WILL stop the
petrol coming out as soon as you have a couple of
turns made.

 Tighten up valve, holding pump body to

stop rotation. Then re-attach fuel hose etc.

The bits that might fall out of the valve is a

spring and ball which form the old non-return
valve.

The purpose of loosening the valve is so that

you don't have to spend time trying to undo the
valve with fuel leaking out.

Primarily designed to
function as a non-return
valve, but has the capacity
to hold the valve closed. The
803 combines all the
features of both the 801 and
the 802 valves into one unit,
making it ideal for situations
where it is not practical to
install two valves or where
safety is paramount.
